I can\u2019t imagine anyone arriving at Masseria Trapana and not falling in love instantly.<\/p>\n

The traditional Puglian masseria (a fortified farmhouse), which dates back to the 16th<\/sup> Century, was fully restored to its current splendour and opened as a hotel in 2015.<\/p>\n

\"Masseria<\/p>\n

The drive to Masseria Trapana, which is surrounded by 60 hectares of olive groves, gives you a sense of the tranquillity and the utter relaxation that await behind the fortress\u2019s stone walls.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Enter through the imposing wooden doors into a courtyard dotted with trees, flowers and lanterns and feel the serenity engulf you.<\/p>\n

Masseria Trapana consists of six walled gardens brimming with beautiful orange and lemon trees, which are home to eight suites and two rooms.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Stone walls with high arched ceilings dominate the bedrooms, keeping true to Trapana\u2019s history and gives a very definite sense of place.<\/p>\n

Wrought-iron four-poster beds, cream sofas and patterned rugs are also a theme throughout.<\/p>\n

\"one<\/p>\n

The highlight of the rooms, however, is that each has a private garden with a large, deep sunken bath where you can relax under the lemon trees at the end of magical day in Puglia.<\/p>\n

Utterly idyllic.<\/p>\n

\"Huge<\/p>\n

Rest in a hammock among the lemon trees in the grounds of the hotel or head straight to the gorgeous swimming pool surrounded by large sunbeds under the plum trees.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a cute stand where you can borrow a hat to help shade you from the Puglian sun along with a phone to call for a top up of your wine.<\/p>\n

\"the<\/p>\n

The restaurant serves a nightly changing set menu of traditional Puglian cuisine while lunch is a mix of local and classic hotel dishes.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

A weekly pizza night adds some fun, when you choose your own toppings in the kitchen and watch it cook in the stone-bake oven.<\/p>\n

Sundowner cocktails on Trapana\u2019s almost secret rooftop are a must as well (as you can see below).<\/p>\n

\"Emyr<\/p>\n

Masseria Trapana is all about the barefoot luxury \u2013 relaxed, unstuffy and seemingly effortless but with owner Rob\u2019s heart and soul poured into it.<\/p>\n

Trapana is a real gem of a hotel, which is as relaxing and restorative as they come.<\/p>\n

Its charm lies in its simplicity and authenticity, much like Puglia itself.<\/p>\n

Masseria Trapana is located 20 minutes by car from the city of Lecce, and 30 minutes from Brindisi airport.<\/p>\n

For the 2020 season, Trapana will operate as an exclusive-use villa rather than a hotel due to the impact of Covid-19.<\/p>\n
